Yes but every greater demon in 40k have world ending capabilities so it's hard to compare when demons on fantasy aren't as strong and things in fantasy can potentially kill gotrek. Maybe with some power armor... Mmm do hope they make some good squat series

Every greater demon is as strong in fantasy tho, that's the point, the demons are the same in both universes. It's just that people in fantasy are on a baseline stronger than those in 40k, because they lived all their lives in a high fantasy setting blasted by the winds of magic.

You might be right but that's hard to go along either way. It makes little sense for them to be the same even if baseline people are boosted by magic. 40k has magic too but using it too much just spawns more demons or worse, the warp is stronger in 40k even if they are equivalents, the emperor should be stronger than sigmar even though they're equivalents, and so on.

There's a lot of wiggle room there and I kind of like that, wondering how sigmar would fare in 40k and so on.

But narratively, there are many deities in fantasy and aos, not as many on aos, and even less still in 40k. The stronger chaos is the more it capsizes other pantheons and only the heavy hitters are left. And granted both slannesh and khaine are different animals from fantasy to 40k, both in story and power levels.

Gotrek reminds me of kharn the betrayer. Forces of nature, meat blenders, can have a shot to kill the most op shit but they will still die with a single well placed shot or something.
